ends are selvage finished in pretty good shape although a bit uneven.
Overall condition is good used, with a little wear under one arm hole (not
significant).

Chajul Huipil --- I
haven't seen many pink huipils from chajul. This one is soft and has
some sparkly threads woven into the brocade. I believe figures are
double headed eagle. Panel ends are selvage finished with some wear
and light "runs" in one selvage edge. There is some wear and loose
threads on the brocade. Overall condition:
moderately good used with some fading along lower salvage and light spotting
or graying in some of the base material. Still would be fun hupil to
wear and would be priced higher if didn't have the wear.

Chajul Huipil --- Striking
unusual design in cotton
two-panel huipil for a woman made on a back-strap loom. Look at
closeup of full size huipil to get better ideas of the unusual complex
design. The price
reflects that uncertainty. Selvage edges have been lightly hemmed on 3 or the 4 panels. In
very good used condition with a few
loose threads . Sides are open so could be worn as a poncho or easily
stitched closed.

Fitting
Tips --- Huipils were traditionally made on a loom. Thus they are made of rectangular pieces
and are not intended to be a fitted garment. The width of the garment should be
considerably larger (at least 25 to 33%) than the shoulders of the wearer.
Think about room to grow too! Mayan women often put tucks in a huipil's shoulder
then remove them as a child grows.
Neck and head hole openings
on Huipils are often small. Note that we can not
guarantee that the neck size of a Huipil fits you and your child.
If you want to wear some huipils you may have to open the neck opening and
lightly stitch it. This is especially true of
Huipils that have been woven on a back-strap
loom. Please check your neck and head measurements
carefully!!!
